Log Jockey, also printed as Difficult Rider!, is a comic story written and drawn by Carl Barks. It features Donald Duck, Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck, Peg-Leg Pete, Red-Eye, Two-Eyes and Whitewater Duck.
Plot
Having decided to visit his distant-living cousin Whitewater, Donald Duck finds him in the middle of a quarrel with rival lumberjack Black Pete (or "Pierre" as he has himself be called). Whitewater is injured just before a logging contest with Pete, and manages to guilt Donald into filling in for him… never mind that he knows nothing about how to be lumberjack.
